installing-juypter-lab-docker

## Initial setup you should only have to do this once
# Checkout docker stacks project
git clone https://github.com/jupyter/docker-stacks

cd docker-stacks/base-notebook

# Clone the telemetry in this directory, this is currently a private repo. 
git clone https://github.com/educational-technology-collective/hwf-jupyterlab-telemetry	

# git needs to be added to base image
sed -i '' 's/ca-certificates/ca-certificates git/g' Dockerfile

# Build and tag this image
docker build . -t base-notebook

# Remove it if it already exists
docker rm base-notebook

# Run the base-notebook adding in the telemetry
docker run --name base-notebook -v "$(pwd)"/hwf-jupyterlab-telemetry:/home/jovyan/hwf-jupyterlab-telemetry:z -p 8888:8888 base-notebook start-notebook.sh --autoreload

###### END OF INITIAL SETUP

## You may have to do these steps below each time you need to re-create the container

# If you just stop the container you can start it with 
# docker start base-notebook -a

# TODO: Create a new Dockerfile that extends this one and adds this telemetry?
# Not sure how auto reload works yet

# Install telemetry now (could be in an earlier phase)
docker exec -it base-notebook /bin/bash

# Build the extension, this will take a few minutes
cd hwf-jupyterlab-telemetry && pip install . && jupyter labextension develop . --overwrite && npm install typescript && npm run build

# Copy the URL that's in the window, use the 127.0.0.1 one and go to that!

# After doing this go to /lab (You have to do the copy/paste for the token first)
http://127.0.0.1:8888/lab

# Click the puzzle piece icon on the left and click enable

# The code is currently hardcoded to use lti.tools to capture events, you can see them there
https://lti.tools/caliper/event?key=hwf-jupyter&limit=0

# TODO: Document how to re-build/reload. Since this directory is mounted it probably just involves doing the step again to build the extension

I'd not gotten quite that far.

I had created a short docker-compose.yaml (https://gist.github.com/lsloan/e6ba9bdca5363f88ccf2738cdf586de9).

My next step was going to be trying the install steps.

For the docker run command (line 20), include the --env JUPYTER_ENABLE_LAB=yes argument to start JupyterLab by default. Then it won't be necessary to go into Jupyter Notebook first, followed by editing the URL to access JupyterLab.
